Beautiful private property.
It was a perfect getaway from the hustle and bustle of the main land. It was clean and quiet. The outside area was amazing. The outdoor pool area lighting was great, but pop the lights off for a few minutes to really take in the gorgeous night sky without the light pollution we have become accustomed to. It is breathtaking.

Quiet retreat in Coral Bay
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. This is perfect spot for a couple seeking privacy, away from busy Cruz Bay. You definitely want a 4WD Jeep, we would not recommend anything else. Reserve early because we met a few people who wanted to rent a Jeep but they were all booked. The king bed was very comfortable, on the softer side. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare all our meals (ate out once in 10 days). The pool was fabulous to come back to after a busy day on the hiking trails, snorkeling and boating (recommend renting a Boston whaler for a full day). We didn’t use the room downstairs other than to do laundry. We did not need to watch TV downstairs so no problem not having TV upstairs. My husband loved the outdoor shower, he never did shower indoors! Jared was very responsive and communicated with us quickly. Thank you for a fabulous stay!

Great Escape!
Our 2nd time staying at New Moon was just as wonderful and memorable as the 1st. The villa was clean and inviting, and the pool was immaculate as ever! The property managers were very responsive and helpful. Excellent location, very private and safe. Can’t wait to come back!!

Lovely little jungle getaway.
It was a great private and secluded residence where we felt comfortable and safe. I would not recommend this for anyone not comfortable driving a 4 wheel vehicle but then again that's all anyone should be driving on St.John anyway! The pool was refreshing as well.

This was the perfect villa for a honeymoon. The pool was wonderful. The set up with the kitchen and living area was great. We used the dining on the screened in porch a lot.

Classic St. John
Nice, clean, private, comfortable house with beautiful grounds in a quiet, friendly neighborhood. Deck and pool are perfect for non-beach chill out days and the screened-in porch is lovely. Owner and property managers are friendly, laid-back, good communicators, and very helpful. We loved our time here, would come back again!

Cozy quiet comfort!
If you are looking for a safe, quiet neighborhood home at a good price from which to explore the island look no further! New Moon Escape offered my husband and I a comfortable sleep, near a great breakfast joint (Pickles in Paradise), and we swam or snorkeled all over the place. If you want high end this isn't it, but if you want cozy solitude book New Moon Escape!

Peaceful Property
We really enjoyed our stay at New Moon. Basement was a bit musty smelling and dark, so we didn't go down there to watch tv. But who needs to watch tv in St. John. The property is peaceful with beautiful flowers and tropical trees, that was our favorite part.

New Moon Escape was amazing
My wife and I stayed here for a week. We were the second users since the hurricanes. The location is perfect for great access to all the beaches and hiking trails. The New Moon team was great to work with and we really enjoyed our time in the home. The pool was so nice to have at the end of a hot day. We really enjoyed our time there and will be back!

Welcome too the jungle
Very private place. Great pool. Gas grill is a plus. Laundry on site. We visit St John often, and love trying new places. New Moon Escape did not disappoint. All you need too relax and have a pool day, or get out on the beaches. Convenient too stores and restaurants. Our host Jared was just a call or text away. Overall great experience!!!

Happy Holidays
This kind of cottage, off by itself, is perfect for a couple like my husband and myself. We like the quiet and the greenery surrounding the house. The WiFi functions well and the kitchen has what we need. We enjoy the mini-pool for taking a little dip and I love the hammock for lounging and reading. One does need a good Jeep to navigate the short but very rocky, bumpy drive in from the main road, but if you drive slowly it is fine.

Adorable clean secluded cottage
My husband and I had a wonderful stay. Its a very clean, secluded adorable cottage.We would definitely stay again. We are actually looking at our calendars so we can begin booking another stay. We really enjoyed the private pool after a long day of travel or after a day at the beach. The road is bouncy like others had said but we didn’t really have a issue with that once we found it. We did have a 4 wheel drive. The kitchen was well equipped and the ac kept it comfortable. I definitely give this 2 bedroom, 1-12 bath adorable cottage 5 stars.

Casual secluded home surrounded by beauty
Our stay here was fantastic and this is definitely the best value on the island. This is a quaint little cottage but with plenty of room to spread out. Despite the road leading to it, the location offers easy access to Coral Bay restaurants and shopping. The kitchen was well-appointed and the grill seemed brand new. The deck was great at night for star gazing and offers a limited view of the water. The downstairs media room was a little disappointing because it smelled like it had been recently fumigated so our kids just slept in the nook off the main floor. Overall, super solid place to stay and no regrets renting it at all.

Excellent Coral Bay Gem
I highly recommend this property if you’re looking to stay in the Coral Bay side of STJ. It’s a very quiet, secluded property with nice amenities and sleeps 4-5. Great pool and deck as well as a double hammock up on a perch above the main house. Kitchen is a perfect size, and beach amenities are provided for guests. The drive to the house is a little challenging at first, but once you get the route down, it’s easy to get back to. House is located centrally to the Hwy 20 turnoff to the north shore beaches, East End beaches and south shore beaches. The host and property manager were very attentive to visitors’ needs and checked in during the trip. All in all a gem in the best part of STJ!

Hidden Gem
My friend and I stayed for a week at New Moon Escape and had a wonderful time! The cottage is cozy and well-equipped with pretty much everything you need, including beach towels, extra linens, cookware, beach chairs, etc. The pool and deck were lovely and the screened-in porch was a nice place to enjoy our morning coffee. Communication with Jared was excellent and the check-in/check-out process was turnkey. The five-minute drive from the main road to the cottage was quite the adventure, but we thought it was fun. As others have stated, a 4-wheel drive vehicle is pretty much necessary. The cottage is just minutes from several restaurants and two small grocery stores. I highly recommend Dolphin Market - they have fresh produce as well as a nice selection of cheeses, crackers, hummus, etc. Overall, it was an amazing stay at New Moon Escape - highly recommend!
